Question

Four tiles lettered H, O, P, and E are face down on a table. A tile is selected, the letter recorded, the tile replaced, and the process is repeated. What is the experimental probability of selecting an H? The results are H-5, O-5, P-4, E-6.

Answer 1

Answer:

1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Result obtained : H-5, O-5, P-4, E-6

Hence, number of trials = (5 + 5 + 4 + 6) = 20

Experimental probability :

(Number of occurences of an event / total number of trials)

Experimental probability of selecting an H;

Number of occurrences of H = 5

Total number of trials = 20

P(selecting an H) = 5/20

= 1/4

Hence, the experimental probability of selecting an H is 1/4
